'''NGC 5514''' is a pair of [[Galaxy merger|merging]] [[Disc galaxy|disk galaxies]] in the northern [[constellation]] of [[Boötes]]. They were discovered by German astronomer [[Heinrich d'Arrest]] on April 26, 1865.<ref name=Seligman/> The galaxies are located at an estimated distance of {{convert|106.33|e6pc|e6ly|0|lk=on|disp=out|abbr=off}}.<ref name=Crook_et_al_2007/> The morphology of the system is similar to the [[Antennae Galaxies]], NGC 4038/NGC 4039. A distinct tail extends to the east for an [[angular distance]] of {{val|1.5|u=arcminute}}. There is a fainter tail extending a comparable distance to the west.<ref name=Fried_Lutz_1988/> This galaxy pair likely forms a small group with the nearby spiral galaxy [[NGC 5519]].<ref name=Lipari_et_al_2004/>

This appears to be a collision between two galaxies of unequal mass, having a 2:1 mass ratio. They display activity of the [[LINER]] type, but this is located in two regions in the outer parts away from the combined nucleus.<ref name=Fried_Lutz_1988/> These may be large shock regions caused by the collision. There are two corresponding [[starburst region]]s, one of which has outflows that have created a supergiant galactic bubble.<ref name=Lipari_et_al_2004/>

One [[supernova]] has been observed in NGC 5514: SN{{nbsp}}2019igh ([[Type_II_supernova#Type_IIb_supernovae|type{{nbsp}}IIb]], mag. 19.05).<ref>{{cite web | website=Transient Name Server | title=SN{{nbsp}}2019igh | url=https://www.wis-tns.org/object/2019igh | publisher = [[International_Astronomical_Union|IAU]] | access-date=6 September 2024}}</ref>
